Hey guys,
So I'm in the market for a quintessential bop kit, and I've got my heart set on some Round Badges. But I dont know how I feel about 3 ply versus 6 ply. My first choice would be 3 ply because the plys are thicker, and the shells are still thinner than the 6, so the sound quality would be tremendous, but the bass drum has reinforcement rings, and I wouldnt be surprised if the other drums do too. 6 ply has no reinforcement rings, but more/thinner plys so theres more glue and blahblahblah so sound quality suffers on that respect, but I do prefer no reinforcement rings.
if any of you guys can shed some light on the overall sound sound of these drums and which one would be better, I'd really appreciate it.
